One thing i am kinda interested in knowing, apart from getting information that i can get a ps3 version then a discounted version of the game on ps4. Only thing preventing me from buying the ps3 is that i have no idea how much the ps4 version will cost. Would be nice to get information about that rather then i will be offered that and “how to” by using codes. Didnt really know where to ask so im asking here.

You almost had me sony but forcing us to buy plus and in return owning our soul, our attention, and time… and getting at least 50 yearly visits to the PS STORE for giving us some free c ap games. nO THANKS.

while its nice to see yet more clips of the games advertised for months on the blog here – any chance of news on the UI and its features? or the camera? or the controller (is that light always on!)?
is the PS4 store integrated with the PS3 one? can PS3 owners buy PS4 titles to download at a later date? and whatever questions others have

or is it a case of waiting till its released in US and read the feedback of the real users to find out these questions?

This won’t be my next console. I was deceived with PS2, i was deceived with PS3, and i won’t try luck for the third time. Buy PS4 and risking SCEE forcibly change my console to some karaoke machine again? Thank you, but i’ll pass.

@Podyman LOL you are never going to let that Singstar thing go are you? Here is you complaining about it and I can’t actually access it ^_^
Fine miss out on the best generation of games yet then crybaby.

Are we talking about the same PS+ that I know and love and just about every other subscriber knows and LOVES? I’m confused see cos you say you will have to go to the store 50 times to get cr apply free games. So you must know about some other lower standard PS+ that we all don’t know about because the PS+ that I know only gives out mostly AAA free games every month.

Like we get Metal Gear Solid Reveangence, Remember Me just for PS3 today and Oddworld Strangers Wrath on Vita and Motorstorm RC for both PS3 and Vita. How on earth can you accuse them of giving out cr ap games?

If you refuse to join PS+ because you don’t want to pay to play PS4 games online that’s fine. But PS+ pays for itself DOZENS of times over every year so don’t say your not paying it because it’s not worth it for Cr ap games because your words hold absolutely ZERO weight.

Hi, Fred. Yes, I will be picking up my launch PS4 console in just a few weeks. I am disappointed that Watch Dogs was pushed back and at this point all I think I’ll be able to play is Flower but it’s ok.

I’m sure my PS4 backlog will rival my PS3 and Vita backlog in no time at all.

All this stuff is great but playstation let lot’s of users down with not making the store available in all european countries. And for me that is going to play a big factor on my decision on which console to buy being from Malta and not having access to the PSN PLUS which obviously means i wont be able to play online makes a big difference so after many years i’ve decided my time has come to leave Playstation for another Console XBOX it is.

Shame really as there are many ps users over here and lots of them are making the switch to xbox.

I presume that this part of the video is talking about Sony First Party Studios, right? If that’s so, then why it only shows 7 studios(Sucker Punch, Media Molecule, Sony Santa Monica, Guerrilla Games, Sony Japan, Evolution Studios and Sony London)? Where are the others(Naughty Dog, Sony Bend, Guerrilla Cambridge, Polyphony Digital, Sony San Diego, Foster City Studio and Xdev)?

Not 100% sure what information you’re after, but i’ll do my best to help you out. When it comes to the PS3 to PS4 upgrades, each compatible game will come with a code inside the box. The games supported are:
Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag
Call of Duty: Ghosts
Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition
Battlefield 4
NBA 2K14

You’ll be able to ‘purchase’ the PS4 version as soon as you have the PS3 version of the game, via using a redeemable code on the PSN store.

All of the games will cost £9.99/€9.99 to get the upgrade, except for NBA 2k14 (for some reason) which will cost £11.99/€14.99

14 studios are working on games exclusive for PS4, however, only a certain amount of them have been announced. I’m pretty sure that’s why the other studios aren’t mentioned, because there’s no official confirmation from them, so Sony don’t want to be the ones to announce on their behalf.

Hi Fred, nice vid but with the bundles on sale now we still don’t know anything significant about the camera. Nor have we clearly what to expect from Plus for PS4. Will it be a AAA game and a indie or 1 indie and 1 indie instant collection game.
And what about the services? Will we get a movie store, Home, when does my country get mobile, Gaikai etc.
I really need more information before I get out my money. Yes I know promises from Sony don’t mean a thing when the promises for PS3 or Vita or any service that started and never came to my country are an indication but I need more you guys are giving us now!

@10 Lol.
What I want to know is – Where are all those viruses we were supposed to get plagued by when they released the PS3 and other current gen online consoles? When the media were saying we might need to have virus scanners on our games consoles (lol).

Why has no-one written a virus that removes that stupid SingStar spam icon yet! How epic would that be! 😛

No games at launch that have me really excited besides kz but thats included in my mega bundle, besides kz the only other game that has me slightly interested is planetside 2.nothing else until around spring when infamous & hopefully watchdogs are out (fingers crossed no more delays) at least there’s ps+ to add what ever too pass the time

Today feels like a good day i watch the ad it look look [DELETED] looking via my Ps3 the games dont look crap the viewing video was crap but that youtube for you.

there no need to force me to get a ps4 or a plus didn’t i tell you i was getting a Ps4 on launch & i was not force to get plus i went into plus when it 1st started those were dark days then but much better line up Now. 🙂

I understand that you need to be a plus member for online, no problem for me as been signed up since day one, but will you need a plus account for each sub account? as there are two sub accounts on my ps3 and soon to be ps4, for the young ones. I don’t really wish to be spending 3 x £40 just so they can play on their account, as will be basically getting the same great freebies each month from my plus account, hope you can clear up, cheers

Whats the word on playing PS3 games on PS4, I don’t want to upgrade and then find I can’t play the new FF13 game, Dark Souls 2, Kingdom Hearts 2.5 and all the other games coming out for the PS3 in the next 6 months.

@12 andrewsqual : He does have a point when you look at the big picture. The PS3 was essentially a better console at launch than it is today.. That’s how I experienced it anyway.. It had backwards compatibility and better overall quality, but it was more expensive too obviously.. They cut costs on the slims which resulted in a loss of quality, especially the fans in those are below Sony standards and are way too loud imo. But even when it comes down to the UI and store. The ‘Singstar spam’ is just a small part of that. The trophy section is extremely slow and buggy now and the store is a complete disaster imo. In many ways they did these things right initially, and messed it up towards the end of the PS3’s lifecycle..
That’s something I haven’t experienced with the other PS consoles, which kept getting better in every way.. But then again, consoles and games are so much more complex now. But on the other hand, they did get it right in the start so it’s kind of their own fault too.

It also worries me for the future of my beloved gaming brand. Just seeing all the changes they made to the iconic and perfect traditional Dualshock design, and reading about how they even considered making it look even more like the Xbox controllers (actually thinking about even changing the joystick positions to something similar!!:s)
That and the payed for online, coupled with PLUS (not a positive thing for everyone! I know that’s hard for you PLUS lovers to understand), alongside the issues the PS3 has been having in some aspects, has just got me worried that the golden days are over..
Also, Please Sony, stop trying to find inspiriation from the competitors side, if anything they should be inspired by your brand and make a controller more likewise to ours, and go with free online like it was supposed to be.

In your FAQ can you please answer which PS4 games are going to support stereoscopic 3D? Currently the store lists AC4 and CoD: Ghosts as supporting it. I’d like a confirmation as well as information on what other upcoming titles may be supporting it.
